Fox News host Juan Williams was shredded when he could not bring himself to denounce Peter Fonda’s vulgar attack on President Trump’s young son, calling the tweets “poorly worded” instead. Williams downplayed the tweets by the Academy Award-nominated actor and filmmaker despite the fact that his threats prompted first lady Melania Trump to alert the Secret Service. Fox News’ Gregg Gutfeld assumed Williams would feel simarily about Fonda’s “disgusting” rant, but his response caused a major backlash from “The Five” co-hosts on Wednesday. In a series of tweets posted Wednesday, Fonda called for Barron Trump to be placed in a...

As they did last week along with the other networks, ABC led its Monday morning Good Morning America by hyping complaints from Democrats and liberals about the Trump Administration border policy. Correspondent Marcus Moore’s report even touted a celebrity’s curse-filled rant at the GOP without acknowledging the profanity. GMA started off its obsessive negative coverage with a report by White House correspondent Cecilia Vega, noting disapproval from first ladies Bush and Trump. “This is a policy that’s just eating away in terms of controversy at this White House,” Vega hyped, before adding that both Melania Trump and former First Lady...

Tough-talking actor Samuel L. Jackson wished President Donald Trump a happy birthday on Friday, but the Twitterverse took exception to the perceived anti-gay slurs in the message and laid their vengeance upon him. Jackson’s tweet: “Must have been a party at The White House, Mitch, Paul, Rudy & others were spotted wearing knee pads & carrying these lined up outside. Happy Birthday.” The tweet included an image of a product called “After Dick Mints” with the tagline “Going down?” One Twitter user asked, “Did you and Joy Reid get hacked by the same person?” The reference is to the MSNBC...

Rosanne Barr retweeted a statement that alleged former Obama advisor Valerie Jarrett had evil intent towards Jews and Israelis. The retweet came several minutes after Barr tweeted on Tuesday that “I’m making restitution for the pain I have caused.” The retweet, from a user calling himself “Ghost of Bull Moose,” read: “You didn’t cause any pain. Those people always hated you. Valerie Jarrett wants Israelis and Jews chased into the sea, and she’ll celebrate.” .....

Chris Farrell, Judicial Watch. “They were running an operation to undermine a candidate for President of the U.S. These are all violations of law. This is intelligence tradecraft to steer an election. There’s nothing more grave when it comes to abuse of our intelligence system... ...This is a level of criminality beyond the pale. This is such a grave abuse of power and authority, it’s like nothing else we’ve seen in our history. This makes the Nixon Watergate burglary look like keystone cop stuff ....The greatest Witch Hunt in political history!https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1004171953404628998

And on the third day, there was contrition.Roseanne Barr is seeking an opportunity to personally call those she’s insulted on Twitter. No, not all of them — who has that kind of time? — but at least to phone three people she attacked leading up to ABC canceling her sitcom. Namely, George Soros, Valerie Jarrett, and Michelle Wolf. Attempting to also get phone numbers for Jarrett, Michelle and GS to personally apologize to them tho I disagree with their politics. I was still wrong 2 dehumanize them-they r not my enemy, harboring hate & anger is my enemy. I can...

"With record amounts of Oil all over the place, including the fully loaded ships at sea, Oil prices are artificially Very High!...

They found a way to keep the President from talking to us. 😀

As Twitchy reported, a fire broke out on the 50th floor of Trump Tower Saturday evening, and some people couldn’t contain their excitement, with one alleged mental health counselor tweeting that he hoped there’d be “major damage.” Musician David Crosby, who’s tweeted that if you’re a “Trump dummy and you don’t like progressives” you’re not welcome at his shows, quickly tweeted and deleted “oh boy …..burn baby burn.”

Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., accidentally sent out a tweet Wednesday that appeared to be a draft. The tweet included a parenthetical reminder to “tag officials and tax march,” before sending the tweet where she said she would be participating in a march to call attention to the “GOP tax scam.”

President Trump asserted on Saturday that special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia should never have been opened in the first place. "The Mueller probe should never have been started in that there was no collusion and there was no crime," Trump wrote on Twitter. "It was based on fraudulent activities and a Fake Dossier paid for by Crooked Hillary and the DNC, and improperly used in FISA COURT for surveillance of my campaign. WITCH HUNT!" The Mueller probe should never have been started in that there was no collusion and there was...

Ross Gerber is a fund manager at Gerber Kawasaki. According to their webpage, they have over $650 Million in assets under management. Given Gerber's recent comments on social media, one must wonder if he has any Trump supporters as clients. In a now-deleted Tweet, Ross Gerber Tweeted from the official, verified @GerberKawasaki account: "If you are hosting or attending the Trump fundraiser in LA we will identify who you are to the media and public. We will boycott your business'." Mr. Gerber of course has every First Amendment right to dox and boycott people. However, as a fund manager, he...

Ryan faced a backlash on Saturday after he pointed to a secretary’s $1.50 weekly increase in take-home pay as a sign of the Republican tax plan’s success.“A secretary at a public high school in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, said she was pleasantly surprised her pay went up $1.50 a week ... she said [that] will more than cover her Costco membership for the year,” Mr. Ryan posted on Twitter, sharing an Associated Press report about paycheck increases under the $1.5 trillion tax overhaul.The article describes a high school secretary, Julia Ketchum, as “pleasantly surprised” that her pay...

So much Fake News is being reported. They don’t even try to get it right, or correct it when they are wrong. They promote the Fake Book of a mentally deranged author, who knowingly writes false information. The Mainstream Media is crazed that WE won the election! 5:08 PM - 13 Jan 2018

All it takes to go from goat to superhero with the mainstream media is a little Trump bashing. Ergo, yesterday’s white nationalist presidential Svengali, Steve Bannon…  has morphed into today’s mutant Ninja white patriarchal hero – something a white male could previously do only by “transitioning” to an entirely new  gender.Caitlyn, 2015 winner of the ESPN Arthur Ashe Courage Award**They might at least have the common decency to be embarrassed by their sudden adulation of Saint Bannon but that would be asking for some semblance of decency which is clearly beyond their ken.Michael Wolff, who was apparently tapped to write...

President Trump blasted Pakistan in his first tweet of 2018, saying its leaders have given the U.S. “nothing by lies & deceit.” “The United States has foolishly given Pakistan more than 33 billion dollars in aid over the last 15 years, and they have given us nothing but lies & deceit, thinking of our leaders as fools,” he said Monday morning. “They give safe haven to the terrorists we hunt in Afghanistan, with little help. No more!” he added. The New York Times reported late last week that the Trump administration might withhold $225 million in aid over frustration with...

On December 3, President Trump issued an interesting tweet… not terribly unusual for him, as that’s how he communicates with the American people. Just as Ronald Reagan was famous for “going over the heads of the press and speaking directly to the people,” Donald Trump uses today’s technology to accomplish the same end. As a result, he is better able to command the political narrative than most Republican presidents (Democrats don’t need to find such methods, since the press has long acted as Democrat presidents’ house organ). In this particular tweet, President Trump said that the FBI’s “reputation is in...

A planned “working visit” to the United Kingdom by U.S. President Donald Trump has been cancelled following Prime Minister Theresa May’s decision to publicly upbraid him over Twitter retweets. The prime minister said the president was “wrong” to share videos purporting to show Muslims committing acts of violence while on a visit to the Middle East, where she is attempting to curry favour with local dictators. President Trump did not hesitate to rebuke the British politician, telling her: “Don’t focus on me, focus on the destructive Radical Islamic Terrorism that is taking place within the United Kingdom. We are doing...

Top congressional Democrats canceled a meeting with President Donald Trump on Tuesday after the president attacked them in a tweet, saying that they "want illegal immigrants flooding into our Country unchecked, are weak on Crime and want to substantially RAISE Taxes" and that he didn't see a deal happening with them.
